A Song Lyric Story
Friday, April 30, 2010
For my former friend...
Kiss and Control- A.F.I.
“Hearrrrrrtssss. Ourrrrr heartssss. / "We all want to die like movie stars" you said, as you jumped from the height of our cutting room floor. While above us glowing, exploding, our dreams burst forth in light in death. Hold me and tell me, "We'll burn like stars. We'll burn as we fall. Watch as the city lights DANCE FOR US!"/ City lights, like rain, Dance and explode. Fall upon the pain of our lives, /reeling from nights that Kiss and Control, Fall apart, the pain of our lives, has pain. / Dance and explode.”
~
“So maybe it’s true,” you say as you balance on the curb, with your arms outstretched as if tight rope walking at a precarious height. I smile at you as you walk.
“What do you mean?” I ask.
“Maybe it’s true that I get dizzy easily when kissed and that I fall in love with every girl I meet.”I walk beside you in silence.
“What’s your point?” I ask.
“But you’re the only girl to make my entire world spin and make me love her for more than a day.” You stop walking and block my path. I freeze up.
“It was a two-second kiss.” I say.
“If you never intended for me to feel this way than I only have one criticism about that kiss.”
“What?”
“It was two-seconds too long.”
You walk ahead. I follow, unsure what to say.
